I enjoyed my stay in Gerry's place. Gerry is very nice and helpful. The room was spacious with amazing bed, table, chair and plenty of space to store your things and was also equipped with a heater. It's a residental area, very quiet at night so I got a good night sleep. I would definitely stay again.

Hana2017-05-01T00:00:00Z

Gerry's house was good. Clean, silent, and warm. I had to stay in Wellington to fix my laptop, and wanted to be in a homelike place. Gerry is very generous, friendly.

Jio2017-06-09T00:00:00Z

Gerry was a great host, very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The room is comfortable and pleasant. Great value, recommended!

Peter2017-05-12T00:00:00Z

The host is extremely friendly and kindness, everything is perfect in this house, you will enjoy and loviin it. Very suitable for long term guests as well as short term. Very Recommended ! I will be Back !!!

Suyadi2017-07-13T00:00:00Z

Gerry and his place are really great. He deserves to be a superhost as he is now. Thanks for sharing me the things to know in New Zealand (culture, rules, history, etc.) The room is complete with comfortable bed and thick sheets, table and chair for your things, a closet for your clothes, and a warm heater to get you off from shivering. His place is complete with utensils, cooking tools, laundry, and a fast internet. The kitchen is also well heated. It is also a few minutes away from bus stops going to the train station or to Queensgate. There are also shops nearby to get myself a good food. Overall it is a grand experience in this picturesque place with Gerry as an outstanding host. Will definitely recommend this place for future bookings.

Darwin2017-09-04T00:00:00Z

Gerry is a friendly and helpful host. The accommodation was very clean and there is everything that is needed for the stay. For a solo person accommodation is recommended.

Marion2017-04-24T00:00:00Z

Gerry is a great host and the bed is super comfy and cozy. It's a great value for money.

Awesome little place for exploring Wellington, 20 minute drive from the CBD. The house is basic but very cute and has a pretty outlook over the reserve.

Absolutely beautiful spot with a great view of the valley. Bed was amazing. Hosts were very welcoming and very unintrusive. Perfect little unit for 1-2 people with a lovely deck to catch some afternoon sun and have a BBQ. Shower was very hot and a very nice tidy bathroom. Would 100% recommend staying with Collin and Deirdre and would happily stay again myself. Thanks guys.

Beautiful modern space. Have had some plastering done to the ceilings but does not impact the space at all. Roll down blinds and a heat pump.

Nice tidy street with good neighbours and very quiet neighbourhood

A fantastic stay, the room is compact but has everything that you need. The house is very comfortable and cosy and lives up to Amanda's description. The Location suits me down to the ground as close to work and shops. It is easier with a car but the train is only 5 minute walk away. I would highly recommend Amanda as a host, she is very easy to communicate with and keeps the house very tidy. I am so impressed that I keep coming back. Thanks Amanda for a great stay

Pete2017-04-06T00:00:00Z

Hi, I had the pleasure of sharing Amanda's (and Louie the cat) flat for 6 weeks while working on a project in Wellington. Amanda is an awesome host, easy to get on with and has a personality that made me feel at home straight away. Her flat is very clean and tidy, close to all amenities, and has very secure off street parking. I would highly recommend staying with Amanda if you are ever looking for accommodation in Wellington.

Kelvin2016-11-19T00:00:00Z

An awesome stay. The location suits me well being close to work area and shops with a vehicle. The home is cosy and very comfortable. Amanda is a tremendous host. I would recommend this airbnb to any one. Thanks for a great week

Pete2017-03-17T00:00:00Z

Another great airbnb stay with Amanda and Louie ( the Cat ). The airbnb is suitable for 1 person. The room and bed are very comfortable, the house is cosy. The location is close to were I was working and suited me very well. Amanda is an exceptional host, making you feel very welcome from first meeting. I would not hesitate to recommend Amanda and her airbnb. I will certainly return next visit to Wellington. Thanks for a fantastic stay

Pete2017-05-19T00:00:00Z

Amanda was very accommodating with my arrival time and I was very warmly greeted when I arrived at the house. After I was offered a drink, I spent a lovely time having a chat and getting to know Amanda. The room is very well presented. I had an excellent night's sleep in a very comfortable bed. I would highly recommend this host to all other guests and would certainly stay here again next time I am in Wellington.

Want to feel on top of the world surrounded by openness and peace. We have a self contained studio apartment with a queen bed and a single bed. Including an equiped small kitchen. Our views are stunning as we live high on a hill amid farmland providing peace and quiet yet we are still close to the city's by car. Wellington city is a 25min drive, Porirua is a 15min drive. Lower Hutt and Upper Hutt are a 15min drive. Our nearest grocery store and takeaways are in Whitby village an 8min drive.

We live on the end of a small country road away from all the hustle and bustle yet are a short drive to most places in the region.

The views are amazing, it's like being on top of the world. And it's so peaceful.

I recomend this place very much! We where 3 students living at Jen's place for 2 months. We have been living a lot of places the time we have veen in NZ - but jen is miles from the other hosts we have stayed at! She is so helpfull whit everthing, we cant find one bad thing about jen, or the flat. It is a reslly nice flat whit a nice big bathroom, good shower. Alle the kitchen tools was there. I can keep on telling amazing things about the flat and, and Jen and her familie! Thanks again Jen, Poul, and Sofia.

Jeppe2017-05-04T00:00:00Z

Even though there is a bus stop down the hill, I would recommend having a car if you stay here. Also bring a book as there is no tv.

Comfortable quiet renovated upstairs apartment with everything supplied for an easy stay, including delicious provisions & treats. Great location with regular bus service into the city at the door & the Airport Flyer stop a short walk away, or 10 mins. walk to the train station into Wellington. Walk to the local Petone beachfront & parks in 5 mins. or a 10 min drive to beautiful Eastbourne Bays.

Everything is on the door-step for a great holiday - boutique shopping, cafes, restaurants & bars along the street below, including Wellington's latest favourite daytime café "Comes & Goes" next door, and book a spa treatment at "Beauty Inc." just downstairs. Beach walks and a great kids park on the beachfront. Swim, boat & surf at nearby Eastbourne bay beaches.

Stayed here for the Lions tour. Great location and excellent hosts!!

You will love the ambiance of this cosy one bedroom home with all day sun, amazing views and literally just up the steps from a safe swimming beach.
There is a bus stop at the beach, with a regular bus service to Wellington City, the restaurants and cafes in Petone, the Queensgate Mall or go to Eastbourne & catch the ferry to the city.
There are lots of walks in the hills, or you can enjoy the sea as you walk around the coast.
A great spot for couples, solo adventurers and business travellers.

This quirky, private and sunny top floor spacious apartment has spectacular views from every window.
The furnishings are to a high standard including a very comfortable queen bed and modern bathroom with a bath and a shower. There is a separate kitchen with basic supplies in the pantry.
WIFI (internet) is provided for your convenience.
This is a great place to relax and enjoy the environment. The sea is always changing, boats are coming and going from the marina, the sunsets are amazing and at night you can enjoy the city lights across the water.

Pt Howard and the Eastbourne Bays are a very unique part of Wellington.
With the sea, all day sun and amazing views it is hard to imagine that you are only 25 minutes from the centre of the Capital City of New Zealand. There are bush walks in the hills, or you can join the locals walking or running around the coast.
A ferry trip to Matiu/Somes Island (you can walk around the island which is now a reserve) or across to Wellington is a great experience.
There are craft shops, cafes and restaurants in Days Bay and Eastbourne, plus numerous cafes, restaurants and bars in Petone, plus Wellington City has so much to offer.

This place is absolutely magnificent. There was a mixture of bright sunshine and moody rain clouds during our stay but no matter what the weather did, the views were fantastic. The place was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay very much. Even though we live just across the harbour in Wellington, this felt like just the holiday we needed.

Emily Reyes2017-08-07T00:00:00Z

Fantastic accommodation at Dreenagh and Kevin' s place, and wonderful hosts they are too! Beautiful views of Wellington Harbour make for a great stay. The apartment is clean, tidy and well appointed. I'll definitely be coming back to this for my trip to Wellington.

Adam Cohen & Lizza2017-02-21T00:00:00Z

Dreenagh and Kevin are really fantastic hosts, always there by the first contact to give you tips and advise on local attractions. The view over Wellington harbour is fantastic, the place is very tidy and contains anything you might need during your stay. Wish we booked a longer stay but now the more reason for a return visit. Will & Jie

William2017-03-05T00:00:00Z

I had the top apartment -a great size, well appointed with everything you would need including food, fresh fruit, milk and butter and even a fresh loaf of bread! Bathroom fully supplied with generous toiletries and good quality linen and bath towels. There was even a nice surprise under the pillows- fine quality chocolates. One of the most comfy beds Ive ever slept in. Spectacular views.

ngaire2017-01-01T00:00:00Z

The view from the living room and bedroom across Wellington harbour towards the city is worth the trip in itself. This property was absolutely perfect for us (couple). Dreenagh and Kevin were super helpful and clear with their communication prior to our arrival. Although we arrived on a very late flight, their instructions were very clear in how to access the property and made the process stress-free. The booking includes the top floor of the house with a separate entrance (we hardly noticed anyone else staying in the ground floor). The 180 degree views out over the harbour are nothing short of spectacular. We were often finding ourselves staring out at the view for minutes at a time. The property is a perfect size, with a comfortable sized living room, spacious separate kitchen, generous queen bedroom, and good-sized modern bathroom. Other than the amazing views, highlights included: powerful & hot shower, comfy bed, reliable WiFi, only 15 mins drive to the city (yet peacefully isolated), beautiful bush land with walking tracks only 5 mins stroll away behind the property. We would highly recommend this property, and it will certainly be our first choice when we return to Wellington in the future.

Henry2017-07-03T00:00:00Z

The view is amazing. Check in was very easy. The apartment had multiple heaters and heated blankets which were very useful in the winter. The apartment was also well stocked with food and games. Dreenagh was very responsive and everything went great. We liked it so much we decided to stay an extra night.

Austin2017-07-22T00:00:00Z

Even more beautiful than the photos - I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this lovely abode. Dreenagh and Kevin were excellent communicators and everything was exactly as described. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.

Funky styled apartment with great energies, in a mid century building right on historic Jackson Street, for the perfect visit to Capital and local area. It is fully furnished with linen & towels provided. We normally use it as office, creative space, and Healing Room, but family & work commitments call us away this year, making it an ideal base for visitors.
The spacious ground floor basic kitchen enjoys afternoon sun and is equipped with gas hob & oven, and basic amenities. On the same level is a laundry with washing machine & dryer, a shower and a toilet.
Upstairs you will find the sunny lounge overlooking Jackson Street, a queen bedroom with bed & high quality mattress (electric blankets), bathroom with bath/shower and toilet and the 2nd bedroom with a single bed. There is also a sofa bed in the lounge. Unique abstract paintings on wall, created by artist/healer owner, library of motivational books to enjoy.

Historic Jackson Street offers quirky cafes, countless eateries & take aways and eclectic boutique shops. Some buildings date back to 19th century and it is considered one of NZ's first shopping streets. It is a must to walk up & down and explore the unique shopping/dining experience. 5min walk to the beach. There is a dairy (convenience) store around the corner or 2 supermarkets within 15min walk/5min drive. 2 gym facilities within walking distance, City Fitness, Jetts 24 hour Gym access.

Nice place and very nice host!

Lovely evening in Petone. Beat was very helpful and a great host.

Stacey2017-02-25T00:00:00Z

This apartment was very central to Petone and had plenty of things to do right ok your doorstep. It was a 20 minute drive into Wellington and it was perfect for doing everything we needed to. The flat itself was large but very homely. Everything was very clean but felt very relaxed and like we could settle right in. We loved it. Beat was wonderful as a host and couldn't have been more accommodating. He was incredibly helpful and friendly and made our stay a great one!

Megan2017-04-10T00:00:00Z

Beat was fantastic, he meet us at the apartment and gave us a great orientation of the apartment and the locals shops. It is so quiet for being right in the middle of everything, it has a beautiful energy and we will stay again next time we are in Wellington.

A great wee pad for one person or a couple. Not so great for two people needing separate bedrooms as the bed in the second room was too small and narrow for my adult son. But overall it was central and met our needs for the week.

Shona2017-01-20T00:00:00Z

Beat met us at the property and was very hospitable. Clean, quiet and spacious. It's in a great location with easy access to Wellington and shops and food outlets nearby. Parking was not too difficult. Will definitely try to stay again when we have another reason to visit the region.

Sanne2017-02-02T00:00:00Z

The apartment was very clean and comfortable. We appreciated the supplies provided and local information about cafes and delis. Although right above the Main Street it was quiet. The up side of the location is that it is easy to walk to cafes etc? We found parking on the street a little difficult as it was Perone Fair on Saturday. The building is old but the price reflected this.

Lesley and Lawry are delightful hosts and the Loft was a pleasure to stay in. Car parking was always available on the road outside the entrance. Excellent food shops, restaurants in nearby Jackson St. The accommodation is spacious, well lit, quiet (double glazing), has comfortable seating, and provides wonderful outlooks of the Wellington harbour. The amenities are excellent - especially in the kitchenette with staple food provisions to make your stay so much easier.

Terry2017-05-15T00:00:00Z

Lesley & Lowry were pleasant hosts, however, the loft really isn't suitable for any one who is tall. We are not tall people & found negotiating the bedroom & bathroom a challenge as the accommodation is of a strange design and the sleeping areas particularly are right into the eaves which meant constantly stooping to negotiate the bed. There was no storage ie. Wardrobes etc. The breakfast was very basic with just cereals & toast. Very limited space when trying to use microwave and kitchen area. When I first enquired about the accommodation, I told Lesley that we were visiting Wellington for the Lions tour and a price was agreed. However, a few weeks later, having realised that accommodation was in great demand for that week, Lesley decided to increase the price. As by this time, accommodation was getting in short supply, we had no option but to accept this price increase. I do feel that this was very cheeky on her part.

Sue2017-07-02T00:00:00Z

I loved staying in Lesley's loft apartment. Great location. Lesley and Laurie were good hosts - friendly but not intrusive.

Lesley and Colin went the extra mile to make this a wonderful stay at their special seaside home on the beautiful Petone foreshore. This was my first time with airbnb and a marvellous experience ! I highly recommend a visit here ! Big thank you to Lesley and Colin !

Santosha on Woodburn is a modern semi-detached apartment set in a quiet, sunny, semi-rural location 15 minutes drive from central Wellington.

This apartment has two average sized bedrooms, bedroom one has a queen sized bed and the second bedroom contains two king singles beds, so the apartment can sleep four persons.

Woodburn Drive is a cul-de-sac on which about 30 house are located. It backs onto the Woodburn Reserve which has a walking track that can be traversed in a circular fashion in about one hour. The neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful with prolific bird-life, tui's abound, keruru or wood pigeons and karareki's the NZ parrot are seen more often now, with the Ruru or Moorpork often been heard calling at night at the right time of the year. Star gazing is also great out here as we have no street lights.

Diane's Airbnb is brilliant. Felt like a home away from home. Diane was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. Wonderful apartment, the big shower was particularly great and the beds were very comfortable. Picturesque and quiet area but also close to central Wellington.

Lucy2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

Diane's place was just what my sister and I needed for our holiday in Wellington. Tucked away just 20 minutes from the city, her place was surrounded by scenic views and greenery. Diane welcomed us with open arms to her beautiful spotless granny flat attached to the side of her home. The place was very clean and tidy and she provided us with the basic condiments and more. She really went to the extra effort to make our stay as comfortable as possible - even milk and eggs in the fridge! The kitchenette area is spacious with all the crockery you need to make a meal. There wasn't a stove persay but she provided a hot plate and electric cooker to compensate. There was also a heating unit that kept us very warm during this cold Wellington winter. Overall, we loved Diane's place, we even did one of her mediation/relaxation classes and thoroughly enjoyed it. A lovely stay and would definetly recommend to others!! Photos don't do this place justice! Only thing is that it would have been difficult to get back and forth without a car. Diane did say there is a train station close by however it is a good 25 minute walk which during the winter would have been challenging. Otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed our experience and it completely exceeded our expectations - truly a hidden gem :)

A beautiful house in a beautiful location. Nice and pleasant hosts. Very recommended!!!

Cendra2017-07-02T00:00:00Z

Magnificent house in nature in 3 minutes by car to a large supermarket. The house is spacious, light and very comfortable. Near Wellington if you have a car. Perfect!

Laurence2017-03-15T00:00:00Z

An unforgettable stay. , , Diane and her family are so welcoming and always ready for a frank discussion. However, I had very, retired in the first days when I desperately needed the rest. That too was perfectly fine. To get to speak to the interior of the house: it is the best ausgestattetste apartment I have ever had. Yes you can move in right away. It is all this and more available. Well maintained. Diane packed the fridge with eggs, milk, jam, butter, bread full. There are also different. Cereals, everything. Even drugs. Ideal for several days. easy to reach Wellington and the car ferry 15 min. drive. A supermarket Countdown in 3 min. Drive. I have the time really enjoyed myself an evening with Diane about yoga (she is a yoga teacher) replaced. Everything was perfect and I recommend esunbedingt on. Also ideal for families as two bedrooms.

Excellent Location, great host with excellent communication and very seamless process

This tastefully decorated, four bedroom apartment is located in the dress circle of Woburn and is accommodation with a difference. It is part of a "Grand Designs" scale church conversion which is now an executive residential property and is one of the most unique homes in Wellington.

Dress circle of one of Lower Hutts most exclusive suburbs. Located across from park, information book with popular places to visit available onsite.

Mike was very friendly and helped open the door for us. Cosy and clean place! The exterior of the house was pretty too.

Yi Lin2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay in Mike 's apartment at Woburn, Lower Hutt. The accommodation was very clean and well presented and accommodated the 7 of us very well. The proximity to the rail station at Woburn was a major plus for us as we were going the the West Pac Stadium for an All Black test. Five minute walk to and from Station and 20 minute train ride to the Stadium. We would definitely stay there again.

The landlord is very good, we sent late to open the door, the landlord to help us open the door. The house is well equipped, suitable for cooking, house decoration has characteristics, the church is very beautiful, the next will come again

The apartment is with modern facilities and looks even better than in the pictures. We all loved the shower in the bathroom, which helped us relax after a long drive. Mike is helpful and nice, definitely recommend.

Guoying2017-02-27T00:00:00Z

A pleasant place to stay that is a very close walk to the train station and supermarket. One minor issue is that the bathroom door can sometimes be open from the outside.

Matthew2017-01-28T00:00:00Z

A great place to stay in comfortable surroundings with high class fittings and furnishings. The host and his family were a great help with any queries that we had. 4 very large double bedrooms made our stay perfect.

Great host, the apartment was very clean & tidy with great facilities. The pictures of the apartment look really good the apartment itself was even better.

John2016-12-30T00:00:00Z

I cannot tell you how much we all really enjoyed Deb's apartment in Wellington. We appreciated her very keen eye for interesting detail making the apartment very far from ordinary & memorable in so many ways. There is no stone left unturned here with everything you could possibly need very generously supplied by Deb. The furnishings, linen, towels & equipment are all of the highest quality & and create a very luxurious experience. It is a very pleasant 25 minute walk to the center of the city and all of its easy charm. We would highly recommend Deb's apartment, our biggest regret being that we only had one night. If we are back in Wellington there will be no other place for us. Thanks Deb for such a lovely stay. Cathy, Sam & family x

Cathy2017-02-21T00:00:00Z

Deb was an awesome host house was brilliant

Tiana2017-02-11T00:00:00Z

Our experience within Debs Airbnb was second to none. This Airbnb has everything you need to make your stay warm, comfortable and enjoyable. My husband, our two boys (5 y/o & 1 y/o) and I were warmly welcomed. Deb went as far to treat the kids with goodies, access to toys and Kinder Surprises. She also knew it was our sons first birthday and bought the children glow sticks and glow balloons. A family friendly environment with all the basic amenities provided (including beautiful fresh eggs, milk, bread, cereals, coffee, teas, cooking sauces and oils and then some!). It really felt like a home away from home and we certainly recommend this property! Thanks Deb!

Larissa2016-10-15T00:00:00Z

Really lovely place to stay in Wellington! Easy to find and has so many extras included!! Super clean and Deb was great with explaining everything!! Highly recommend!

Alyson2017-05-23T00:00:00Z

Blown away by how awesome this place was. Beautiful quality interior, secure and well equipped. Great communication from Deb and Ellen and would most definitely stay again, didn't want to leave. The weather was the only issue with our Wellington stay. Absolutely positively Wellington!

Kerry 2017-02-02T00:00:00Z

This freshly painted, self contained cottage/bach had all we needed for a nice stay. The bed was very comfortable and had a great view over the airport and sea. We would be very happy to stay again sometime.

Christine2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Awesome place! It has everything that you need. Would recommend this place to everyone. Dan and Kushla are very friendly.

Shu2017-08-25T00:00:00Z

Great place to stay though a long way from the coast with quite a long way uphill but a great view. Curtain divide only between living and bathroom. The shower was amazing!

Suzanne2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Dan And Kushla's place is a perfect location if you are looking to spend a few nights in Wellington and not want to be in the CBD. It is a short walk from WETA caves, and it has a spectacular view right from the bed. There is plenty of nice shops and cafes right in Miramar for you to enjoy. As well as some nice scenic drives and walks. The apartment is separate from their house so it offers plenty of privacy. Dan and Kushla responded quickly to any questions we had about restaurants and check in/check out. Would highly recommend staying there if you are a person or couple just wanting a nice place to stay with nice views of Wellington.

Guin-Ming2017-08-03T00:00:00Z

Dan and Kushla are wonderful hosts. They are sensitive to their clients' needs, considerate and easy to communicate with. Needless to say, their place is safe, reasonable, cozy, bright, practical, and just a quick drive away to the CBD in Wellington. As added bonus, it has a million dollar view. I'd book it again in a heartbeat.

Mark2017-07-18T00:00:00Z

Excellent location, close to airport and easy to find. Public transport is available. Place is super clean and very nice with all the necessities available.
